sorry if these are both already posted somewhere...

I don't think our class is even mentioned in either of them. Are we even considereda combat class or what? Maybe we are really crafters or something, and no one bothered to tell us.

It seems likeno one in SOE wants totouch our profession with a ten foot pole right now. No mention of us in thecombat profession post 1&2. No mention of us in the suggested grouping thread. No response to our latest correspondence email. Nothing.

We must of said or did something to piss em off!

Yeah, I was disheartened to be glossed over too. My only hopes are that (1) The combat designer and the 2 SL designers are differents peeps (as perhaps Captain's thread perhapsimplies) and (2) They need to decide how combat's going to look in the future before they can best assess how we can help in combat. (which means an even longer wait to get some tlc, just hope they make it count this time)

Nontheless, andI know this is obvious, but I think it will be important for us to have a good working knowledge of how combat works to better lead our squads (because we shouldn't count on everyone we lead knowing how stuff works).

Better to be forgotten then Nerfed to high hell and back EVERY month, (rifleman) I hope you guys get some good stuff soon because you have waited long enough.

I've always thought of the Squad Leader profession as a Supporting Class, not a combat one. We ourselves don't actually inflict damage with our specials or skills, rather we help (or support) others in inflicting damage better.

Well, at least that is what we're supposed to do.

I'm inclined to disagree since our XP is 100% defined by our combat roll.

we're support. Without other ppl, our skills are useless, we support them.

We are the BARDS of SWG.....same thing happened with them. No one knew what to do with that class either.
